Objective:To investigate the expression and clinical significance of microRNA-124(miR-124)and microRNA-1976(miR-1976)in the serum of patients with Parkinson's disease(PD).Methods:A total of 58 patients with PD were selected from September 2020 to June 2022 and categorized as the PD group.The Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale(UPDRS)score was used to divide the PD patients into two groups: those with a UPDRS score≤60(25 patients)and those with a UPDRS score >60(33 patients). The Hoehn-Yahr grading scale was used to grade the PD patients.Additionally, 30 healthy individuals who had undergone a physical examination during the same period were selected as the control group.After collecting the subjects' serum, we performed real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR(qRT-PCR)to detect the expressions of miR-124 and miR-1976 in the serum.Logistic regression analysis was employed to analyze the influencing factors, and the diagnostic significance of serum miR-124 and miR-1976 in PD patients was evaluated using the receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve.To predict the target genes of miR-1976, we utilized several software including TargetScan and Mirtarbase.Results:Compared to the control group, the PD group showed a significant down-regulation of serum miR-124 expression[(1.49±0.36) vs.(1.02±0.32)]( t=8.85, P<0.001), while miR-1976 expression was sharply up-regulated[(0.98±0.30) vs.(1.33±0.37)]( t=6.92, P<0.001). The low expression of serum miR-124 and the overexpression of miR-1976 were identified as independent risk factors for PD( OR>1, P<0.05). The Hoehn-Yahr rating of PD patients with a UPDRS score above 60 was higher than that of patients with a UPDRS score below 60[(3.42 ± 0.73) vs.(2.16 ± 0.42)]( t=3.05, P<0.05). However, there was no significant difference in serum miR-124 and miR-1976 expression between groups with different UPDRS scores[miR-124: (1.09±0.26) vs.(0.98±0.38)( t=0.89, P>0.05); miR-1976: (1.42±0.43) vs.(1.23±0.68)( t=0.62, P>0.05)]. The ROC analysis results demonstrated that miR-124 and miR-1976 had area under the curve(AUC)values of 0.832 and 0.797, respectively, in diagnosing PD.The corresponding cutoff values were 1.205 and 1.196, respectively.The sensitivity for miR-124 was 74.1%, while for miR-1976 it was 51.8%.The specificity for miR-124 was 77.8%, and for miR-1976 it was 90.1%.When both miR-124 and miR-1976 were combined in the diagnosis of PD, the AUC was 0.912, with a sensitivity of 76.4% and a specificity of 93.2%.Furthermore, it was found that miR-1976 targeted the PINK1 gene, suggesting its potential as a target gene in PD. Conclusions:The expression of miR-124 was found to be decreased in PD patients, while the expression of miR-1976 was increased.Both miR-124 and miR-1976 showed some reference value in PD diagnosis, and their combined diagnostic value was higher.This suggests that further study on their significance is warranted.However, it should be noted that the expressions of miR-124 and miR-1976 were not found to be correlated with the UPDRS score of PD patients.

Objective To explore the current status of post-traumatic stress disorder(PTSD)symptoms among military officers at high altitude,determine the effects of childhood trauma experiences on the symptoms,and investigate the role of parent-child alienation in the process.Methods A cross-section study was conducted on 238 male military officers at high altitude subjected with cluster sampling.All of them were surveyed with childhood trauma question(CTQ),inventor of alienation toward parents(IAP),and Post-traumatic Stress Disorder Checklist(PCL-C)in October 2021.Then the mediating effect of parent-child alienation on childhood trauma and PTSD symptoms was investigated.Results ①The prevalence of PTSD-positive symptoms was 8.5％among the military officers at high altitude.②The prevalence of PTSD-positive symptoms was 15.6％for the military officers with childhood trauma,which was significantly higher than that of those without childhood trauma(5.1％,Chi-square=7.27,P＜0.01).③ PTSD symptoms,childhood trauma experiences and parent-child alienation were significantly positively correlated with each other(r=0.35～0.76,P＜0.01).④ Both childhood physical abuse(β=1.05,P＜0.001)and parent-child alienation(β=0.39,P＜0.01)could positively predict the severity of PTSD symptoms for them.⑤Parent-child alienation played a partial mediating role in the association between physical abuse and PTSD symptoms(β=1.16,95％CI:0.54～1.75).Conclusion Military officers at high altitude with childhood trauma have a higher prevalence of PTSD-positive symptoms and more severe symptoms.Childhood physical abuse can not only directly affect PTSD symptoms,but also indirectly affect its severity through parent-child alienation.

Objectives:Fenofibric acid is extracted from the widely used hypolipemic fenofibrate,nowadays being approved for marketing around numerous nations and regions,nonetheless not in China.Present trial evaluated the efficacy and safety in the Chinese hypertriglyceridemia population. Methods:This is a multi-center,randomized,double-blind,placebo-controlled phase Ⅲ clinical trial.Patients from 3 different cohorts,including severe hypertriglyceridemia(HTG),moderate HTG and mixed-dyslipidemia(MD),were randomized at 1:1 ratio to receive fenofibric acid 135 mg or placebo daily for 12 weeks.The primary endpoint was the percentage change of triglyceridemia(TG)from baseline at week 12.Secondary endpoints were the percentage changes of other blood lipid indexes.At the same time,the incidence of medical adverse events was observed. Results:Among the three cohorts of patients with severe HTG(n=52),moderate HTG(n=23)and MD(n=52),the TG levels in the fenofibric acid-treated group decreased by(49.12±29.19)%,(49.95±25.19)%and(49.79±19.28)%,respectively from baseline to 12 weeks,while the corresponding placebo groups decreased by(18.88±40.69)%,(8.11±29.86)%and increased by(10.42±73.04)%,respectively from baseline to 12 weeks.The differences between treatment and placebo groups were statistically significant(P<0.017 for severe HTG cohort,P<0.05 for moderate and MD cohort).The high-density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C)in the fenofibric acid-treated group increased by(25.51±21.45)%,(24.55±24.73)%,and(23.60±27.38)%,and the placebo group increased by(1.91±20.42)%,(2.40±9.32)%and(7.13±19.12)%,respectively,the differences between the two groups were statistically significant(all P<0.05).In the fenofibric acid group,adverse events with incidence>5%included upper respiratory tract infection(10.9%),abdominal pain(6.3%),and increased serum creatinine levels(6.3%),rates of adverse events were similar between the two groups(P>0.05). Conclusions:Fenofibric acid can significantly reduce triglycerides and elevate HDL-C levels safely in Chinese patients with severe to moderate HTG without statin or MD patients on top of statin therapy.

The establishment of an intelligent audit system for hospital medical insurance is crucial for standardizing irrational practices and curbing the unwarranted escalation of medical insurance costs. A tertiary hospital has developed comprehensive prescription review rules in terms of indications, nutritional risk assessments, pain score evaluations, drug sensitivity test results, and target patient populations. When using medical insurance funds for settlement, both systematic and manual reviews are conducted, and three-level intervention measures such as " prompt, review, and interception" are implemented based on prescription issues. After the system was put into use, the hospital′s in-process information system supervision mode shifted from the previous focus on prompts to focus on audits. The medical insurance intelligent audit system provided timely prompts and interventions, and the number of unreasonable medical insurance prescriptions and deductions from medical insurance sampling prescriptions significantly decreased ( P<0.001), while the number of medical insurance medication prescription audits increased ( P<0.001). The application of the intelligent medical insurance medication audit system has improved the efficiency of prescription auditing and ensured the rationality of the use of medical insurance funds.

Objective: To investigate the relationship between urinary monohydroxylated metabolites of hydroxyl polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (OH-PAHs) and lung function, as well as the role of oxidative stress in these associations, so as to provide a scientific basis for air pollution control and policy formulation. Methods: A panel study was carried out among 45 young healthy adults. Four follow up surveys and health examinations were conducted from November 2017 to October 2018 to measure lung function parameters [forced vital capacity (FVC), second forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1), peak expiratory flow (PEF), FEV1/FVC, and forced expiratory flow between 25% and 75% vital capacity (FEF 25%~75% )], markers of exposure to 7OHPAHs [∑ 7OH PAHs], and markers of oxidative stress[8 hydroxy 2 deoxyguanosine (8 OHdG) and 8 isoprostaglandin F 2α (8 iso PGF 2α )]. The relationship between urinary PAH metabolites and lung function was quantified by linear mixed effects models. Mediation analysis was performed to assess the role of oxidative stress in the relationship between OH PAHs and lung function. Results: The median values of FVC, FEV1, FEVI/FVC, PEF, and FEF 25%-75% were 4.37 L, 3.58 L, 83.00%, 4.38 L/s, and 3.32 L/s, respectively. The results showed that each 1 unit increase in log transformed value of 2 Hydroxyfluorene (2 OHFlu) was associated with a 5.05% decrease ( β %=-5.05%，95% CI =-8.85%--1.09%) in FVC, 4.15% decrease ( β %=-4.15%，95% CI =-7.94%- -0.22% ) in FEV1 and 5.87% decrease ( β %=-5.87%，95% CI =-11.35%--0.05%) in FEF 25%-75% , respectively. Each 1 unit increase in log transformed values of 2 OHFlu and 9 Phenanthrol (9 OHPhe) was associated with a 7.03% decrease ( β %=-7.03%，95% CI =-12.60%--1.11%) and a 7.08% decrease ( β%=-7.08%，95% CI =-13.50%--0.17%) in PEF, respectively. Additionally, urinary ∑ 7OH PAHs had a positive correlation with the levels of urinary 8 OHdG and 8 iso PGF 2α ( r =0.64, 0.69, P <0.01). Meanwhile, the levels of 8 OHdG mediated 17.06% and 15.71% of the association between 2 OHFlu with FVC and FEV1. Conclusion The finding reveales a negative relationship between urinary OH PAHs and lung function among young healthy adults. The 8 OHdG plays a mediated role in the correlation of 2 OHFlu with FVC and FEV1. Active relevant policies are needed to control air pollution and maintain the healthy living conditions of young people.

OBJECTIVE To systematically evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of pirfenidone and nintedanib in the treatment of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. METHODS Randomised controlled trials on pirfenidone and nintedanib in the treatment of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis which were publicly published in Chinese and English were searched from CNKI， Wanfang， VIP， PubMed， Cochrane library and other databases. The search time was set from January 2000 to December 2021. The existing studies were combined with indirect meta-analysis to systematically evaluate the efficacy and safety of the two drugs in the treatment of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. RESULTS A total of 15 randomized controlled trials were included， involving 1 026 cases in trial group of pirfenidone and 845 cases in control group of pirfenidone， 1 846 cases in trial group of nintedanib and 1 848 cases in control group of nintedanib. Both control groups were placebo. The results of indirect meta-analysis showed that the two drugs were similar in the evaluation indicators of therapeutic efficacy as acute exacerbation rate， the incidence of forced vital capacity （FVC）% decrease ≥10% from baseline or the incidence of absolute value decrease ≥0.2 L （P values of indirect analysis results were all ＞ 0.01， and the difference was not statistically significant）； but in terms of disease progression rate， nintedanib 150 mg （bid） was superior to pirfenidone 800 mg （tid） （RR＝1.66， 95%CI＝1.06-2.63）； in terms of safety， the incidence of diarrhea induced by nintedanib 150 mg （bid） was higher than pirfenidone 800 mg （tid） （RR＝0.42， 95%CI＝0.33-0.53）. CONCLUSIONS Compared with pirfenidone， nintedanib has slightly superior efficacy in terms of disease progression control， but the incidence of adverse reactions is also increased.

Objective:To explore the phenotype and molecular genetic features of spinocerebellar ataxia type 2 (SCA2) cases with ATXN2 intermediate-length CAG-repeat expansion.Methods:Fragment analysis by capillary electrophoresis was performed to detect the dynamic mutations in the samples of the probands in 1 383 pedigrees with autosomal dominant inherited ataxia in Research Center for Motor Disorders and Neurogenetic Diseases, Department of Neurology, China-Japan Friendship Hospital from 2005 to 2018. The clinical and genetic features of individuals carrying the ATXN2 intermediate-length CAG-repeat expansion were carefully analyzed.Results:Two hundred and three individuals (including the probands and members of their families) in 163 families carried the expanded CAG repeats in ATXN2 gene, among which 107 individuals in 93 families carried the intermediate-length CAG-repeats. Within 20 parent-child pairs, the CAG repeats increased 0-28 copies in 16 pairs with paternal inheritance, and 0-4 copies in 4 pairs with maternal inheritance.Conclusions:For suspected SCA2 cases, ATXN2 gene testing should be performed on the parental members and adult offspring members in the family. Dynamic mutations testing is essential to identify the individuals with ATXN2 intermediate-length repeat expansion, which is very important for genetic counseling.

Osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture (OVCF) can lead to lower back pain and may be even accompanied by scoliosis, neurological dysfunction and other complications, which will affect the daily activities and life quality of patients. Vertebral augmentation is an effective treatment method for OVCF, but it cannot correct unbalance of bone metabolism or improve the osteoporotic status, causing complications like lower back pain, limited spinal activities and vertebral refracture. The post-operative systematic and standardized rehabilitation treatments can improve curative effect and therapeutic efficacy of anti-osteoporosis, reduce risk of vertebral refracture, increase patient compliance and improve quality of life. Since there still lack relevant clinical treatment guidelines for postoperative rehabilitation treatments following vertebral augmentation for OVCF, the current treatments are varied with uneven therapeutic effect. In order to standardize the postoperative rehabilitation treatment, the Spine Trauma Group of the Orthopedic Branch of Chinese Medical Doctor Association organized relevant experts to refer to relevant literature and develop the "Guideline for postoperative rehabilitation treatment following vertebral augmentation for osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture (2022 version)" based on the clinical guidelines published by the American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons (AAOS) as well as on the principles of scientificity, practicality and advancement. The guideline provided evidence-based recommendations on 10 important issues related to postoperative rehabilitation treatments of OVCF.

Objective:In this article, we analyzed and discussed the clinical characteristics and S region gene sequencing of hepatitis B virus in HBsAg anti-HBs coexistent patients.Methods:Data of 5 serologic markers of hepatitis B and quantitative result, liver function and HBV DNA load of HBsAg positive patients were collected, and their basic clinical information were recorded. According to the positive and negative result of Anti-HBs, the clinical and virological characteristics of these two groups were analyzed. At the same time, among 17 320 patients with HBsAg positive HBV infection, 994 cases were tested by gene sequencing. The S region amino acid mutation, site mutation detection rate and genotype of 994 HBV infected patients with gene sequencing were statistically analyzed.Results:The positive rate of HBsAg and Anti-HBs was 4.36% (756/17 320). HBV-related cirrhosis in HBsAg+ /Anti-HBs+ group (19.71%) was significantly higher than that in HBsAg+ /Anti-HBs-group (15.94%), while chronic hepatitis B (62.04%) was significantly lower than that in HBsAg+ /Anti-HBs-group (67.06%). At the same time, the positive rates of HBsAg-quantification (QN) and ALT in HBsAg+ /Anti-HBs+ group were significantly lower than those in HBsAg+ /Anti-HBs-group, the positive rate of HBeAg was significantly higher than that in HBsAg+ /Anti-HBs-group, and the HBV DNA was higher than that in HBsAg+ /Anti-HBs-group, but the difference was no statistical significance. Gene sequencing was performed in 994 HBV patients. Genotype C (81.79%) had the highest proportion, genotype B (17.40%) was the second, and genotype D (0.80%) was the least in two groups. In genotype C HBV infected patients, the detection rate of sP120Q/T/A/S mutant in HBsAg+ /Anti-HBs+ group was significantly higher than that in HBsAg+ /Anti-HBs-group. Meanwhile, regardless of genotype B or C or overall comparison, the detection rate of sG145A/E/K/R mutant of HBV infected patients in HBsAg+ /Anti-HBs+ group was significantly higher than that in HBsAg+ /Anti-HBs-group, these differences were all statistically significant.Conclusions:The hepatitis B patients with coexistence of HBsAg and Anti-HBs were more likely to develop cirrhosis, and the hepatitis B patients with HBV gene sequencing results were mainly type C2. The drug resistance variation of S-region sP120Q/T/A/S and sG145A/E/K/R mutants of patients with HBV infection is an important reason for the coexistence of HBsAg and Anti-HBS.
